(23,373 posts)A Song of Ice and Fire: Book 1 2 and 3 Three times each. Book 4 Two times Book 5 only once. When I can finally preorder Book Six, I will start my reread again
Auntie Mame, Around the World With Auntie Mame and The Joyous Season (my favorite) by Patrick Dennis. I would dearly love to see The Joyous Season made into a movie or short series. It is so funny. I have mentally cast it several times over the years
To KIll A Mockingbird (hasn't everyone>
Jane Eyre Gone With the Wind.
Tolkien
Tom Sawyer
The Godfather
Two from Shirley Jackson that are completely different from all her other work:
Life Among the Savages and Raising Demons. These are about her very large family who live in a large drafty old farmhouse in Vermont. I have probably read them 4 or 5 times each. Absolutely hysterical and another potentially great series.
Non fiction: A History of the Plantagenets includes The Conquering Family, The Magnificent Century, The Three Edwards and The Last Plantagenets. Thomas B Costain who also wrote some great fiction set in the Medieval and Early Renaissance eras
